Share this: The Philadelphia Eagles’ chances of making the NFL playoffs continue to dwindle, but the Washington Redskins still have a strong opportunity to make it. The Redskins currently would be the first team out of the playoffs with a 6-5-1 record, but they are right behind the 7-5 Tampa Bay Buccaneers. So a win Sunday against their NFC East rival at Lincoln Financial Field would be a big boost.

Griff Whalen Excited For Opportunity With Patriots, Hasn’t Gotten Grief For Fake Punt
by Zack Cox on Sat, Dec 10, 2016 at 3:56PM 1,119 FOXBORO, Mass. — Griff Whalen had the misfortune of being a part of one of the most ill-conceived plays in recent NFL history: the fiasco of a fake punt the Indianapolis Colts attempted during a lost to the New England Patriots last season. The play remains fresh in the minds of Patriots fans, but Whalen said he hasn’t heard any trash talk from his new teammates since signing with New England on Friday. “I haven’t,” the wide rece...

Mitch Moreland Chose Red Sox For Environment, ‘Gritty Group Of Guys’
Share this: Mitch Moreland isn’t worried about fitting in with the Boston Red Sox. The former Texas Rangers first baseman agreed to a one-year contract with the Red Sox on Tuesday worth a reported $5.5 million. And Moreland said in a conference call on Thursday that he chose Boston for the players and the atmosphere. “I had a couple options, but really just the whole fact that it’s a place I really wanted to play,” Moreland said, via WEEI.com. “Getting the opportunity to come here and be a part of that winning environment, being a part of a winning environment and having a chance to go out and play for a championship is huge to me personally.

Share this: 3:08 p.m.: The Boston Red Sox are back in action and looking to recover from a 5-4 loss to the Cleveland Indians in Game 1 of their American League Division Series. They’ll have the opportunity to steal a game at Progressive Field on Friday when left-hander David Price takes the mound against Indians ace Corey Kluber. The series opener didn’t go so hot for Boston’s pitching, as Rick Porcello gave up three solo home runs in the third inning, tying his regular-season high. Price has had his own struggles in the postseason, too, but he did strike out 10 and give up just two runs in his Opening Day start in Cleveland. Plus, the Red Sox hit three solo shots of their own
With Jacoby Brissett Or Jimmy Garoppolo, Patriots Will Stick To Same Formula
by Zack Cox on Mon, Sep 19, 2016 at 11:53AM 2,704 Share this: The New England Patriots will tweak their offensive game plan if rookie Jacoby Brissett, not Jimmy Garoppolo, must start under center Thursday night against the Houston Texans. But they won’t overhaul it. Speaking on a conference call with reporters Monday, Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels said the team will stick to the same formula regardless of which quarterback gets the nod against Houston. “We always try to do what’s right for the week,” McDaniels said. “There’s a lot of variables that go into that, and certainly we consider all positions. If we have some situation where we’re missing somebody on the offensive line or at a receiver position, tight end, quarterback, running back — we
Red Sox Notes: Boston Blows ‘Golden Opportunity’ In Loss To White Sox
by Zack Cox on Mon, Jun 20, 2016 at 11:57PM 1,441 BOSTON — Victory appeared all but certain Monday night for the Red Sox, who loaded the bases in the ninth inning of a tie game against the Chicago White Sox. None of those three baserunners made it the final 90 feet to home plate, however, and Chicago responded with two runs in the ensuing half-inning to hand Boston a thoroughly frustrating 3-1 loss at Fenway Park. It was the first time the Red Sox had failed to capitalize in such a sit...
